About this Item

San Francisco, CA: Cattle Protection Board, 1918. First Edition. Thin octavo. 355; [1]pp. 245 pages of brand marks. Red cloth stamped in black. With a brand and ear mark handwritten on wood, property of a Frank Roach of Phelps Ranch. Boards worn and/or gnawed at extremities with minor fraying; a few spots and scuffs. Binding sound and interior unmarked. Includes thousands of registered ear and brand marks with index, text and synopsis of the Cattle Protection Act, designed to prevent cattle thieving, and a list of license slaughterers by county. The Cattle Protection Board only lasted two years before being subsumed by the Department of Food and Agriculture. Records of their work uncommon in retail; a lovely record of early 20th-century California cattle business. [Adams, Rampaging Herd 396].
